"Will 'Flamefist' Paragon?"

The grizzled man with the graying hair took a long gulp from his glass, the ice cubes clinking against the smooth surface. For a few seconds, that was all he did, then he turned his eyes, bloodshot but still sharp, towards the middle-aged woman.

"I don't go by that anymore," he replied gruffly. 

"You're a bounty hunter. The stories say you reached into a dragon's mouth and ripped out its tongue, and when it lit your hand on fire you put it out with its eye."

"The stories say a lot of things."

"So that was a lie."

Flat, almost heartbroken. She was moderately well dressed, most likely middle class, with an apple bottom and an equally large bosom. He took this all in with a sense of tasteless, dry humor.

"Exaggeration. It's good for business. Now if you don't mind -"

He stood up, almost knocking the stool over. His honestly surprised expression said: 'whoops', and he straightened up, wiping his mouth with his sleeve. The fabric came away stained with alcohol.

"- I'll be leaving. I have... Important business with the innkeeper's daughter."

His words were slurred, his voice earnest and somehow pleasant.

"Sir, I don't care if the stories were true or not. You're the only person who can help. Please. We don't have much, but... We'll pay you. Everything we have."

"Not interested, lady," he grumbled, stumbling away from the bar. "I don't want your cash and I don't want to help. Bugger off."

"I beseech you, sir. Help a village in need."

He didn't answer, slowly shuffling towards the exit. Keeping his balance was becoming increasingly difficult, and the droning of the woman from behind him was only irritating him further.

"We have children!" she cried. "Surely you can't be that heartless!"

He paused at that and could almost feel hope flicker inside her. Then, his heart heavy, he pushed the mahogany door open and exited, leaving his worries behind him. Or so he believed. Maybe he wanted to believe that.

"I am offering you a good life, a better life, Tiana. It'd be a shame not to take the offer...for you and our daughter." Tiana...I closed my eyes. Niklaus still said it like a caress. "I can't be in a marriage of convenience." With you. "We'll be a real family," he said quickly. "We need to be, for Reina's sake." What about my sake, I wanted to ask, but instead I stood there. I took a deep breath, and turned to look into his eyes again. They were soft and pleading, sincere. I drowned in them, I always did. It was why I ran years ago without telling him anything. I couldn't imagine being a baby's mama-a woman he laid with and didn't want a child with-an inconvenience. I had never really gotten over him. If there was one thing I knew besides how much I loved my daughter, it was that, and I was scared to death. "We used to be...really good together, you know." I felt my body flush at his change in tone. "Don't." He blinked at me, and then his eyes became completely suggestive. "You remember. I do, too. Please give this a chance," he said softly. "I'll do what it takes, Tatiana. I think we owe it to everyone involved to give this a shot." "What about Demigods?" "Demigods is a show. My life was a show, but it isn't now. It won't be." His whispered plea, his masculine scent, and his blue eyes penetrated my sensibilities. I was trying to think of what to say. I had rehearsed this in my mind for years, and now that he was here, I was going horribly blank. I tried to reason: Reina and I would be provided for, we would want for nothing, right? I just had to find a way to keep my heart away from him. The thought seemed impossible. He took my hand and kissed it, locking eyes to mine. "Do we have a deal then?" I looked at him, realizing that all devils weren't dark-haired and dark-eyed. "Deal."
The White Fox by bbluewulf26
33 parts Complete Mature
The white fox will destroy the werewolf world. It's a legend that every wolf knows. We never hunt white foxes for fear it will be the one in the legend. If a white fox burrows in your territory, it's a sign of bad luck. We all run from white foxes. We were told as pups that if we were bad, the white fox would come to our pack, and the next day, our pack would have never existed. There are laws from the elders that if we find the white fox (not that anyone wants to or will), we were to hand it over immediately. We were not to engage in conversation with it or interact with it at all. So we never expected her to come so peacefully... | "What do you want from me?" I exclaimed. He stopped walking and laughed. "You stupid fuck. I want you to stop fighting me. I want you to shut up and do what I say." He grabbed me again. My muscles tensed and I tasted blood in my mouth. My pupils were dilated. He dragged me to the kitchen again and grabbed my cup that was still on the table. "Drink. It." I grabbed the glass and took a sip. His nose crinkled. "No. Down it. Drink the whole thing." I down it and coughed again. It was so bitter and I recoiled. My head spun and I felt like I was going to throw up. I held my head and closed my eyes. The world spun so much faster when I closed my eyes. He held me under my chin. "Listen. You pissed off a powerful man while you were gone. He wants you and I'm not giving you without a price. So next week, after the paperwork is filled out, you're gonna be good. Or I'll lower that price. Do you understand?" I nodded my head as best I could but it made me even dizzier. He let go of my chin and I felt myself falling. "Now you haven't drank that much. Don't tell me you're out for the count. I haven't even gotten started with you." he grabbed a bottle of beer and handed it to me. I almost dropped it but managed to grab the bottle by the neck right before it left my hand. "Drink."

"Ava, now!" Virin's voice sliced through the suffocating darkness, sharp and urgent. My body moved before my mind could catch up, legs burning as I sprinted toward the van where Kyra and Priti waited, their faces pale with terror. "Run! Faster, Ava!" Priti's frantic scream tore through the night, her fists slamming the steering wheel as if sheer willpower could propel me forward. My lungs screamed for air, my legs trembled with exhaustion, but I couldn't stop-not when freedom was just ten steps away. Ten. Nine. Eight- "Ava!" His voice cut through the chaos, low and venomous, freezing me mid-stride. It wasn't a command. It was a threat-a promise of destruction. "If you don't stop right now, I'll kill everyone who dares to stand between us!" The weight of his words coiled around me like chains, choking the air from my lungs. I knew he didn't bluff. I knew what he was capable of. "Not now, Ava! Run!" Virin's desperate voice shattered my paralysis as his grip yanked me forward, dragging me the final agonizing steps to the van. We tumbled inside, slamming the doors shut. For a fleeting moment, I dared to look back. There he stood, his figure looming in the distance, chest heaving with fury. His dark eyes burned with a rage that made my stomach twist. Slowly, he raised a finger, pointing at me. "You are mine," he growled, stabbing the same finger into his chest. Over my dead body. ***** Ava's life once seemed perfect-best friends, a family she adored, and a love that felt like destiny. But perfection shatters. Caught between two men-one who sparks a fire she can't extinguish, and another who offers solace laced with shadows- Ava is thrust into a web of secrets, lies, and dangerous temptations. As her carefully rebuilt life unravels, every decision pulls her closer to the edge. Ava must fight to reclaim her freedom and her future. Will she escape the darkness that hunts her, or will it consume her completely?

"Why can't you just go away, Ian!" I spat. "We don't need you!" "I think you do, Amber." Ian countered calmly, slowly circling the large table to get to me. "At least speak with your pack. I think some may welcome the change--" "We've done fine!" I moved to widen the distance between us. "It must pain you to know a female pack can thrive!" "I'm sure you've done fine on your own," Ian said softly. "but we are talking about growth, mates, expansion. I believe our packs uniting would be good for all." I gave a snort, looking away. "Good for you, you mean." "Good for you, too." His look held sensual promise as he began to move again. "I don't think so," I sneered as he came closer. His scent was beginning to affect me, so I began to back away. The sight of his large and muscular frame was frightening but held me in wonder, his dark eyes a little too discerning for my taste. But I wanted my freedom, and to unite with an alpha as good as took that away. "Go away, Ian. You're not wanted--" "Okay." "What?" "So, send me away." He said it simply. "I'm a male alpha, but you are female, so you can send me away." "I did!" "No, you didn't," he gave a small smile. "Every time you mention me leaving you look away." He began to move toward me. "I want you to stand still, look me in the eyes--" He pointed at his eyes for emphasis. "Right here, and tell me you want me to leave." I watched him slowly make small steps toward me. I brought my eyes to his and couldn't breathe. His scent permeated my senses, making me feel weak, but strengthening a bond that called for consummation. I didn't want this! Damn him! I shook my head, trying to get the words out, but instead felt tears come to my eyes. He cornered me, leaning down, and caressed my cheek. I bit back a sob, rooted to the spot. He rubbed my nose with his as his eyes glowed and his canines appeared. "Liar." he whispered.

69 parts Complete Mature
Book 1 of "Bloodlust" series. "I'm going to give you one chance to answer me. Where is she?" She asked, looking into my eyes. I looked back at her, terrified. "I swear that I don't know what you're talking about!" I answered, starting to shiver. She smiled wickedly. "You know, the only reason I sent my brother away was because I wanted to interrogate you myself. Whatever he would have done to you doesn't even begin to compare with what I'm going to do to you if you don't answer me. So... One more time. Where. Is. She?" She said, in a condescending tone, as if she was explaining something to a child. "Look, if you want to kill me go ahead. I don't know anything." I said, looking into her eyes and faking the confidence that I definitely didn't have. She looked at me, cocking her head to the side, and for a few seconds I though she wouldn't to anything. My relief didn't last though as she laughed coldly and looked at me with a half smile. Her laughter was beautiful, even though it sent shivers down my spine. It was the same with her eyes and smile. All of which showed me that she wasn't kidding. "Where did you get the necklace?" She asked. I froze, was that what that was all about? I didn't know! "I told you before, my dad left it to me, I swear." I said truthfully. She looked at me for a few seconds, thinking. I couldn't shake the feeling that everything about her was cold. "Well, even if you don't know anything, she'll come for you. And I will have the answers I want." She said with indifference before adding huskily in my ear. "And... I think we can have some fun together while you stay. Don't you agree?" She said as she laughed again and gave me her signature smile. Everything about her showed me that she wanted to hurt me and even more. She wanted me, in every way possible. Rated M(Mature content): Contains triggering content, read at your own risk.

"Liar.." "Monster." The synchronized shallow breaths, his golden eyes gazing down on me, watching every expression of my face as I roll my eyes in pleasure. His hand gripping on my thigh, the other holding me by my throat, his fangs glistening in the candlelight. "Bastard.." I muttered, only to be silenced as his thrusts grew deeper and harder, as if scraping my insides delightfully. I rested my head on his shoulder, hearing him curse under his breath. All of his actions makes me contradict my words. The rage I feel for him dissipates, it feels like I'm relapsing to an addictive drug. It's intoxicating. "I fucking hate you.. tightening around me so damn good.." He said, grunting in each thrusts. My eyes rolling back, groaning in approval he hits my sweetest spots. "Fuck, Vile.. I'm gonna kill you if you don't make me cum right now." I said, my sharp tail pointed at his neck, ready to inject the venom at any moment. Vile laughs, gripping my neck harder. "As if you can. You have the same instincts as I do. The instinct to protect.. to keep you as mine.. and fuck you so senselessly." He said, crashing his lips on mine. The obscuring vision, body trembling orgasm hits me, tightening around him. I bit his lower lip, sucking it until I taste his blood. After a while, he withdraw, giving me a space to breathe and compose myself. "I may have let myself fall into my desires, but I'll make sure you won't get in my way to my mission. You have your own path, so enough following me." Vile dresses himself, before leaving. "And I'll make sure you won't claim me as mine, and get in my way with my own journey, bastard." I muttered.
Lucifer's obsession by _malalala_

His pupils dialate and a smirk shudders my whole body just looking at it. He lowers his head and burries his head in my neck. A slight gasp leaves my lips as I can feel a low chuckle against my neck. "S-stop Luc-" I was cut off by his hot breathing hitting my soft skin. "You don't want me to stop. I know you don't, I can read you like a book." He says and I bite my bottom lip looking away. He buries his head in my neck and I feel a slight burn sensation on my neck. A moan leaves my lips as the burn hurts in a pleasurable way. A moan leaves my lips as his soft lips seem to be kissing around my skin and he starts to nibble on my neck causing me to moan a little louder. He pulls away and smirks at me looking at my slight panting as a small burning sensation is left where he kissed me. ... "Goodbye my love." I say as I grab a golden encrusted dagger off the shelf of treasures. I grab it by the handle and turn around to see him one more time. "I'm not playing with you open the wall!" He says and looks at me with a pitiful look. My hands shaking and I feel the cold metal against my chest plate. "I may never have made you the happiest or even made you interested in me but you have made me the happiest girl in heaven and hell." I say and push it closer to my to the point I can feel a sting. He looks at me with both hands on the glass and I can feel the light around my eyes dim slightly with fear. "I love you Lucifer." And with that I took my final breath as the metal pierced through me. A gasp of air leaves my lungs and I can see Lucifer with a defeated look as I each a hand to the glass before it turned back to stone and my body falls.

Wild Rides by Cave_MarieWrites

"I have heard that losing one's virginity is unpleasant for many females. This is not the case for my kind. Once you mate with a Gelvonian, all previous experiences will seem inadequate." My head fell back on the couch and I laughed breathlessly. "Oh, yeah? You talk big, Captain Nafain? But can you back it up?" "If you can say anything but my name at the end of it, I will be ashamed," he said, completely serious. He carried me into the bedroom, the bed large enough to fit three giant-bodied Gelvonians and adorned with silky sheets that shimmered an inky black in the low light. He placed me upon them. "You should remove your dress unless you don't care if it is destroyed." ↫↼↼※⇁⇁↬ "Stop tickling me. What time is it?" I croaked out. The shades were drawn so tight I had no idea what time it was. "Better question is what day it is," he mumbled, chuckling. You were at it for days?!?" I squeaked, shocked that I had no idea that this was a possibility. He must have enjoyed my disbelief, because he began laughing. "I wouldn't say that I was alone in this. You kept screaming for more. Who am I to turn away such a willing partner?" "My name is Ger'an, by the way. You asked when we met, and I didn't tell you. It seemed rather impersonal to give names, considering why we were here..." He said as he began to trail kisses from my jaw down my neck. "But now I want to hear your sweet voice screaming my name, before you leave this room." I looked down at the man beneath me and I couldn't stop my hands from wandering everywhere. I wanted my ten fingers to touch and trail over every inch of him, the way his tentacles and hands had done to me. It took everything in me not to lose myself in the pleasure that he was giving me. I bit my lip and trailed my fingers down his chest.
